He may not be in office, but Donald Trump has been speaking with the powers that be about Israel’s war on Gaza—but it’s not in an effort to end the genocide.

Instead, Trump has allegedly been talking with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to avert a cease-fire deal, fearing that doing so could help Vice President Kamala Harris win in November, according to PBS.

“The reporting is that former President Trump is on the phone with the Prime Minister of Israel, urging him not to cut a deal right now, because it’s believed that would help the Harris campaign,” said PBS’s Judy Woodruff Monday night. “So, I don’t know where—who knows whether that will come about or not, but I have to think that the Harris campaign would like for President Biden to do what presidents do, and that’s to work on that one.”

    This you?

    Netanyahu has not demonstrated any interest in a ceasefire.

    So, the person actually running the country that’s committing the genocide you’re so against has less culpability than an ally that’s NOT committing genocide? Did i follow those mental gymnastics correctly?

      Netanyahu > Biden > every other nationally elected leader on good terms with Israel > Howard Kor and Elliot Brandt > Jamie Dimon > a long list of senators and governors > Lachlan Murdoch > Ben Shapiro > Donald Trump

        Is “underpantsweeevil” some euphemism for “shit take” that I’ve never heard before?

        ETA: explain how Shapiro, who ISN’T ACTIVELY INTERFERING WITH A CEASEFIRE DEAL is higher on your list than Trump?
